If you review the configuration settings I gave above you will discover that I
already have applied the suggested configuration changes and am not obtaining
the results indicated:

For example, taken verbatim from the link you helpfully provided:

Well, my setting in amavisd.conf is: $sa_tag_level_deflt  = -9999;  and
amavisd has been restarted many times since that change was made.

Believe me, I have googled for this issue extensively and tried many of the
suggestions.  None of them have worked for me.  I have already gone to the SA
list in the hopes of finding an answer and found none.

We also do SPF policy checking and dkim verification before things hit amavisd
so these things should not affect what amavis does wrt headers.  I include
this information in the interest of completeness.
